Yarns<\/strong>
We are knitters The Petite Wool : 2 skeins (136g were used) – Pearl
Hedgehog Fibres Silk Mohair: 20g – Potluck<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gauge<\/strong>
11 sts and 11 rows for 10cm x 10cm (unwashed)
8 mm needles
Knitted fabric is squishy and drapey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cast on 40 sts.<\/strong>
Knit back and forth (flat) for 15 rows, ending with a WS row:
WS k3, [k2,p2] 8 times, k2, sl3wyif
RS k3,[p2,k2] 8 times, p2, sl3wyif
Break yarn and put on hold.
Knit a second identical piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Assemble both pieces to knit in the round:<\/strong>
Both pieces should be on the RS (as below picture).
CDD (Centered Double Decrease) on the 3 sts from the i-cord border, knit while maintaining 2×2 rib pattern until 3 sts left on 1st piece, CDD
Repeat for 2nd piece. 72 sts left.
Now 2×2 rib is in place to work in the round. Do so for 15 rounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Front opening, knitted flat<\/strong>
K11, bind off 14, knit until end of row. 58 sts left.
Knit in garter st for 36 rows (18 ridges), ending with a WS row.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Closing the hood<\/strong>
K36, ssk, turn.
Sl1, k14, k2tog, turn. Repeat this row until all side stitches are gone, ending with a WS row.
Back loop cast on 2 sts, turn to RS for i-cord bind off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I-cord<\/strong>
On RS, k2, k2tog, slip sts back to left needles.
Once all live sts have been worked, continue i-cord by picking up stitches from the border:
18 sts on the side
14 sts from ribbing cast-off
18 sts from the other side
Finish by grafting the live i-cord sts to the i-cord cast-on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I-cord + picking up a st<\/strong>
1. Knit the 2 first i-cord sts, slip the 3rd st to the right needle.
2. Pick up and knit a st from the border
3. Slip the new st + 3rd st
4. K2tog, slip the 3 sts back to to left needle, ready for next repeat.
